Goodbye Song

No need for flutes or violins

Cause they won't mean a thing

When everything's been said.

No need for fancy cards or flowery prose
不需要豪車或詩
Though I suppose

they make us feel less bad.
它們讓吾心稍適
No need for long, drawn-out explaining
不需要冗長的解釋
how and when - and why - this love came to an end
何時何地何因，這段愛稍縱即逝
No need to to tell me so sincerely

you still want me in your life to be my friend.

A little bitter, but it's sweet

and start again

So I won't cling to you
我不會拖住你不放
because it's driving you away
